Keep seeing good things about Slip products and want to try some. Not sure what to order. Do u guys use the regular lube or the EWL? If u regularly use 725 cleaner do u need carbon killer. I dont shoot that often but that may change depending on whether SHTF. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I currently use Weapon Shield and like it, but I'm always open to trying other products if they make the job easier. |

There are at least a couple of high-end OEMs that ship Slip 2000 with their rifles...so that's what I have used and been happy with (google "Filthy 14" for a "test" of Slip products).
I haven't used Carbon Killer but am going to get some the next time I can remember to order it. |
| I use the carbon killer on the bolt tail and barrel extension usually, just let it soak while I clean everything else. Sometimes I clean with CLP first, since I have more of it, then lube with Slip 2000. I just recently got some of the M7 Pro LPX that I will try out next time. |

Gun Lube, EWL, and EWL 30 are basically the same thing, according to the people at Slip. But EWL and EWL 30 will last longer than Gun Lube between cleaning. EWL and EWL 30 will lasts the same, but EWL 30 is thicker "like w30 oil." Extreme Weapons Grease is something you probably won't need unless when you do shoot, its very, very heavy.
In their website, you will have to look for the links to their product sheets where they will give their recommendations and uses. If I recall, Gun Lube is for less than 500-750 rounds. 725 is water based, and I think the carbon killer is also, so you have to immediately lube. |

I can almost assure you they ship this stuff for product advertising(a business transaction) rather than an opinion of how well it works. This is not to say anything negative about Slip2000 products. I use the EWL on all my guns now. It is a VERY good product. I feel this stuff is "Tier 1" lube!! 
I especially like it in my .22 conversions. The crud seems to have almost been eliminated. |
